I removed the blanket from my bonnet on my old TT to help rid some of the heat quicker. Was gonna do it on my new one too, but its a modified bonnet, got a bulge etc on it.

I have spent the whole morning today ringing around various places to get hold of either Tigerseal or Sikaflex 221 but no joy. Any ideas where to buy these as I need to fit my wire mesh onto the rear of the bumper today.

You were in a red 300 about 5:15 yesterday near Lewisham Train Station lompit vale area

Due to recent events of part time lovers hounding me I have lost total touch with reality and hence asking basic questions again: how the fu*k do you stick wire mesh behind bumpers ?

Quite fancy one, but not sure how powerful to go? Would this one (up to 230 ft/lb) suffice for most (simplish jobs) jobs on the Zed? http://www.machinemart.co.uk/product.asp?p=000310096&r=2017&g=103 Thanks, Matt.

when i put it in drive or any gear theres is a slight knocking noise from box,when moving you cant hear it only when stopped.gearbox feels fine ,but just that i have never heard it before as my aircon bearings was making aload of noise. is this something to worry about or is it a normal ..like i said its a slight knocking noise .seems like its going with the speed of engine if you see what i mean. thanks

Anyone here, heading Northbound, on Sunday 26th...

So my head gasket went, no biggy as I know enough about these engines to do it almost blind folded. That said, some things kinda baffling me that I havent seen before. Got the usual, mayo oil, and same with the water, but....my soft intake pipes that come from the filter have mayo in them, on the driverside, the steel turbo inlet pipe is FULL and i mean FULL of water/oil mixture!, as is the driver side plenum and the pipes that go from turbo/cooler/throttlebody, also in the plenum about an inch deep in water/oil mixture! the passenger side isnt as bad tho, just a mayo film in the pipes and nothing on that side of the plenum...so im wondering what on e…

Hi, I need to sort out the drivers side arch liner. I have no way of securing it to the edge of the bumper. There is obviuosly something missing. Is it a bracket that comes with the bumper? I don't really want to buy a new one just for this. Bart
